In world breaking news, Andrew "Twiggy" Forrest in company with the Queensland Primer Annastacia Palaszczuk announced; Fortescue Future Industries will build the world's largest green energy hydrogen manufacturing facility in Central Queensland. The plant will be manufacturing green energy infrastructure and equipment, such as electrolysers, cabling and wind turbines, to create green hydrogen that will be exported across the world. Forrest went on to say; "Queensland has the beautiful combination of wind and solar and you have a hard-working, educated people [and] a great government steering into a green hydrogen future." Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the announcement secured Queensland as part of the "green renewably hydrogen energy revolution". Hydrogen is part of Queensland's future and [this] sets Queensland up to be an energy powerhouse in green renewable energy." The Premier said 300 jobs would be created in regional Queensland over the lifespan of the facility. Green energy has a potential world market of $12 trillion per year by 2050. This is great news for Queensland and Australia. Unfortunately the Morrison federal government remains yet to even set a target of net-zero emissions by 2050, as it continues to pander to the coal and gas industries.

Hi Paul,

This is great news. It means there will be ongoing
jobs into the thousands into the future.

It's also a good opportunity
with this facility for traditional owners in the
Gladstone region to be offered secure work in the
industry. Training could be set up in local high
schools.

A win-win all round for the state and the country.

Hi Foxy,

I am absolutely convinced that sustainable green energy is the way of the future. Australia, more than most, has a great opportunity to be a part of that green future. Fossil fuels are not evil, they are inanimate object which have served us well in the past, but there is now a price to pay for that service, and its in the cost created by global warming through the past exploitation of those materials, climate change is real and it is adversely impacting many lives the world over, some of us will pay a very high price for the past dependence on oil, coal and gas.

Unfortunately we have retarded politicians like Barnaby Joyce and others in government who cannot face the reality that the world is in crises, and climate action now is absolutely necessary. We had the experience of Morrison carting a lump of coal into the house of representatives, what a disgrace that was, what is his mind set. Driven by the greed of wealth creation these guys will go to any length to avoid the obvious. The retards are like dinosaurs, they are a thing of the past, and like the dinosaurs they will take us to extinction given their blind thinking.

Green energy.
Sustainable example.
We have a 10 acre plantation of Ash trees that we coppice for firewood to supplement and conserve our native, and slower growing species.
The eldest son is planning on another 10 acres (plus) so that we will eventually be burning only Ash.

Renewable green energy, especially as Ash can be burnt green.

Ise Mise, is Ash a wood that burns easily with high moisture and does it give off much heat? Serious question, not having a go at you but the UK is bring thousands of tonnes of dried US wood pellets.
